Slowly decrease the water temperature so that standing under the shower becomes less soothing. This will encourage you to exit the shower once the water is too cold for your comfort.

Slowly increase the water temperature so that at one point you feel overheated, which switches your mindset to gladly turning off the water and stepping into the relatively cold bathroom air.

Abruptly turn the water temperature very cold. Try to stand under the water for at least 10 seconds, letting it flow over your head. This will prepare you for the pending bathroom air that will engulf your body once you step out of the shower. Some people really enjoy this method, while others rather despise it; find what works for you.

Have a waterproof egg-timer in the shower. Set it for 3 minutes. Make it a personal game to see how fast you can get wet, soap up, scrub, and rinse.
